The 28 kg will be a perfect bridge to more volume with the 32 kg.
The "tweener" weights are excellent for the ballistics but probably less so for the grinds IMO.

Interesting to manipulate the variables
I usually do a set (one side) every 30 seconds (10 seconds work/20 seconds rest).
This was 20 seconds work and 40 seconds rest.
The same "numbers" but different impact.

7/2 was a 160 volume day with half 32 kg and half 24 kg
7/4 was a good 36 kg day
so today I probably should have gone lighter but couldn't resist the 32 kg for snatches.
Next session will be lighter.
